4th of July Weekend

Our celebration starts on July 3rd with Freedom Days.  We plan to have friends and family over to watch fireworks (since we have front row seats).  Nothing better than cooking out, enjoying a few beers, playing cornhole, a fire (weather permitting), kids playing on water slide and ending the night with fireworks.

We place flags along the seawall and our yard. As you can see there was a nice breeze making them wave to the boaters.
Sailboats were out all weekend!

Bobby Green and Floyd playing cornhole!

Fireworks begin...I tried to hold still but it didn't quite work.





Then on Sunday we went to Floyd's parent's house to swim, cookout and then over to New Knoxville fireworks.
